Bowling Green State University softball standout Kendyl Wheeler has been named to the Mid-American Conference's All-Freshman Team. The league office announced the All-MAC and All-Freshman Teams and specialty awards on Tuesday afternoon (May 9).
Wheeler had a stellar freshman season for the Falcons, leading the team in hitting. She played in 44 of the team's first 46 games of the year, starting all 44, before suffering an injury that forced her to miss the final 10 games. A native of Plainfield, Ind. (Plainfield H.S.), Wheeler paced the Falcons in batting average, both overall and in conference games, in her initial season in the Orange and Brown.
